    Fixed-Set-Point Flow Switches for Drinking Water

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Flow Switches. Fixed-Set-Point Flow Switches for Drinking Water.
    Factory set to activate equipment when your drinking water system reaches a fixed level, these flow switches are easier to install than adjustable flow switches. They meet NSF/ANSI 61, so they're safe to use with drinking water. They actuate when your system’s flowing water pushes their paddle into a set position. These switches are single pole, single throw (SPST) and turn one device from off to on. IP rated, they seal out dust and can be lightly rinsed. They're accurate in any mounting position.
    These flow switches are calibrated with water. You can use them with other liquids, but they may not measure accurately if the liquid’s viscosity differs from water.

    Avoid complicated inline installation—these flow switches insert into a tee or pipe outlet, so you don’t need to disassemble your pipeline. They have a paddle that’s pushed as your liquid moves through to determine flow. When the paddle reaches a set position determined by the set point, it activates or deactivates equipment. They are single pole, double throw (SPDT) and can either turn one device from off to on (normally open) or on to off (normally closed). They should be mounted vertically into a large-diameter horizontal pipeline, so liquid pushes the paddle.
    These flow switches are calibrated with water. You can use them with other liquids, but they may not measure accurately if the liquid’s viscosity differs from water.
    Choose a fitting material that is compatible with the liquid you're running through your line.
    Brass Body—Switches with a brass or 316 stainless steel body have multiple paddles you can choose between to get you closest to your set point. For a higher set point, loosen the locking washers to remove the largest paddles. You can also trim the paddles to fine-tune your set point. The more you trim, the higher the set point.
    Noryl Body—Switches with a Noryl body have a paddle that you trim to adjust the set point. The more you trim, the higher the set point.
    Socket-Connect Fitting Connection—Socket-connect flow switches bond to an unthreaded PVC pipe tee or pipe outlet with PVC cement and primer (not included).
    Brass Fitting—Brass and 316 stainless steel fittings resist impact better than Noryl fittings.
    Noryl Fitting—Noryl fittings work with a wide range of chemicals.
    IP65 Enclosure Rating—IP65 rated switches seal out dust and can be lightly rinsed.
    NEMA 4X Enclosure Rating—NEMA 4X rated switches protect against dust, weather, and washdowns.

    Fixed-Set-Point Hazardous-Location Flow Switches

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Flow Switches. Fixed-Set-Point Hazardous-Location Flow Switches.
    Safe to use where flammable gases and combustible dust may be present, these switches activate or deactivate when your flow reaches a factory-set level. All are UL listed for hazardous environments. Because their set point is fixed, they’re ready to go, making them easy to install. They actuate when your flowing liquid or gas pushes their paddle into a set position. These switches are single pole, double throw (SPDT) and can turn one device from off to on (normally open) or from on to off (normally closed). They must be mounted horizontally to function accurately.
    These switches are calibrated with water and air. They can also be used with other liquids and gases but may not measure accurately if their viscosity is significantly different.

    Easy to install, these flow switches come already set to a specific set point and don’t require you to disassemble your pipeline. Instead of mounting them inline, insert them into an unthreaded PVC pipe tee or pipe outlet in large-diameter pipe. They have a paddle that’s pushed as your liquid moves through to determine flow. When the paddle reaches a set position determined by the set point, it activates or deactivates equipment. All are single pole, double throw (SPDT) and can either turn one device from off to on (normally open) or on to off (normally closed). IP rated, they seal out dust and can be lightly rinsed.
    They should be mounted vertically into a horizontal pipeline, so liquid pushes the paddle. Secure them with PVC cement and primer (not included).
    These flow switches are calibrated with water. You can use them with other liquids, but they may not measure accurately if the liquid’s viscosity differs from water.

    Variable-Pressure Flow Switches

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Flow Switches. Variable-Pressure Flow Switches.
    Accurate even in applications where pressure fluctuates regularly, these flow switches split flow into two paths and measure their difference in pressure drop to calculate the flow rate of liquid. They activate or deactivate equipment when the flow rate reaches your set point. Tighten or loosen the adjustment screw to choose your set point anywhere within the range. They measure accurately no matter their mounting position. All are single pole, double throw (SPDT) and can either turn one device from off to on (normally open) or on to off (normally closed). Rated NEMA 4X and IP66, they seal out dust and protect against washdowns and corrosion.
    These switches are calibrated with water. They can also be used with other liquids but may not measure accurately if their viscosity is significantly different.

    Electronic Insertion-Mount Flow Switches

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Flow Switches. Electronic Insertion-Mount Flow Switches.
    Instead of disassembling your system for inline installation, thread these flow switches onto a mounting adapter (sold separately) and insert them into a pipe tee or pipe outlet. They send digital signals to your programmable logic controller (PLC) to activate automated controls or alarms when they reach a set flow rate. To calculate the flow rate, they generate a small amount of heat, then measure the cooling effect your liquid or gas has on it. This makes them ideal in applications with fluctuating temperatures. Use the buttons on the display to adjust the set point and other settings. These switches are accurate in any mounting position.
    IP65 rated switches protect against dust and washdowns. IP67 rated switches withstand temporary submersion.

    When these switches reach a set flow rate, they send digital signals to your programmable logic controller (PLC) to activate automated controls or alarms. Use the adjustment screw to select their set point. As flowing liquid pushes an internal piston, the switch reads the position of the piston to measure the flow. When the piston passes the set point, the switch actuates. They must be mounted horizontally to function correctly. IP rated, they withstand dust, washdowns, and temporary submersion.
    These switches are calibrated with and measure water accurately. They can also be used with other liquids by applying your liquid’s specific-gravity conversion factor to calculate the new set point.

    Hazardous-Location Insertion-Mount Flow Switches

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Contains Annotated. Flow Switches. Hazardous-Location Insertion-Mount Flow Switches.
    Safely activate and deactivate equipment in environments with flammable gases and combustible dust when your flow rate reaches a set point. They are UL listed and CSA certified for use in hazardous locations. These switches save you from disassembling your pipeline because you insert them into pipe tees or pipe outlets instead of mounting them inline. They actuate when your system’s liquid pushes the paddle into a set position. To change your set point, the paddle has multiple layers that you can remove. For the lowest set point, use the largest paddle that will fit your pipe. To increase your set point, loosen the locking washers and remove paddles. You can trim the paddles to fine-tune your set point. The smaller the paddle, the higher the setpoint.
    They should be mounted vertically into a horizontal pipeline, so liquid pushes the paddle.
    These switches are calibrated with water and air. They can also be used with other liquids and gases but may not measure accurately if their viscosity is significantly different.
    SPDT—SPDT (singe pole, double throw) switches can turn one device from off to on (normally open) or from on to off (normally closed).
    DPDT—DPDT (double pole, double throw) switches can either turn two devices from off to on (normally open) or on to off (normally closed).

    High-Pressure Flow Switches for Oil

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Contains Annotated. Flow Switches. High-Pressure Flow Switches for Oil.
    Measure the flow rate of oil at pressures up to 3,600 psi to activate or deactivate equipment. Designed to compensate for viscosity and density changes, these switches have an adjustment screw to select your specific flow rate within the set point range. As flowing liquid pushes an internal piston, the switch reads the position of the piston to measure the flow. When the piston passes the set point, the switch actuates. These switches are single pole, double throw (SPDT) and can turn one device from off to on (normally open) or from on to off (normally closed). Their IP65 rating protects them from dust and low-pressure washdowns, such as from a garden hose. All are accurate in any mounting position.
    These switches are calibrated with and measure oil accurately. They can also be used with other liquids by applying your liquid’s specific-gravity conversion factor to calculate the new set point.

    Contactless Flow Transmitters

    Image of ProductInUse. Front orientation. Flow Transmitters. Contactless Flow Transmitters.
    Using ultrasonic waves, these transmitters measure the flow rate of your liquid from outside your pipe. They're a good choice for applications where you need to retrofit your system or avoid liquid coming into contact with the transmitter. Also known as transducers, these transmitters convert measurements to an electrical pulse that can be interpreted by receiving devices, such as remote displays and programmable logic controllers (PLCs). The pulse outputs match the input voltage of the transmitter. The higher the flow, the more pulses they send. For your receiving device to interpret the signal, you will need to calibrate it for the measurement range and output signal of the transmitter. They only give accurate readings within the rated measurement range. Configure them for either a 4-20mA or digital pulse output when installing.
    A digital display makes it easy to check flow rate and configure settings. Clamp these transmitters onto your pipe with the included mounting hardware and gel pads. They measure flow no matter the mounting orientation.
    These transmitters are calibrated with water but can be used with other liquids and will generally measure accurately, even if they differ in viscosity and density. You can recalibrate them in the field for accurate readings on pipe and operating conditions.

    Good for compressed-air systems and other compressed gases that reach up to 3,600 psi, these switches measure the flow rate to activate or deactivate equipment when they reach a set point. Tighten or loosen the adjustment screw to choose your flow rate anywhere within the set point range. As flowing gas pushes an internal piston, the switch reads the position of the piston to measure the flow. When the piston passes the set point, the switch actuates. These switches are single pole, double throw (SPDT) and can turn one device from off to on (normally open) or from on to off (normally closed). They must be mounted horizontally to function correctly. IP rated, they seal out dust and can be lightly rinsed.

    Vortex Flow

    Measurement

    Send flow rate and temperature measurements simultaneously to a programmable logic controller (PLC), data logger, or other receiving device. Used to monitor status or control equipment, these transmitters, also known as transducers, convert measurements to an electrical signal that is interpreted by receiving devices. As flow or temperature increases, the output signal increases. For your receiving device to interpret the signal, you will need to calibrate it for the measurement range and output signal of the transmitter. They only give accurate readings within the rated measurement range. Mount them inline with your pipe system. They’ll measure flow correctly in any mounting orientation.
    A digital display makes it easy to view readings and adjust settings at the source. To change settings and receive error messages remotely from your PLC or computer, program one of the outputs to use IO Link. You’ll need an IO Link controller (not included) to connect to your interface.
    Variable Area Flow Measurement—Variable-area transmitters determine the flow rate by tracking where the liquid pushes the piston. They have two configurable outputs. One can be wired as an analog output or a digital switch. The other one can be wired as a digital switch, digital pulse output, or IO Link. Pulse outputs send flow data using spikes of voltage that match the input voltage of the transmitter. The higher the flow, the more pulses they send. These transmitters are calibrated with water, glycol solutions, and coolants but can be recalibrated in the field for other liquids.
    Vortex Flow Measurement—Vortex transmitters determine the flow rate by measuring the size of the vortex created as liquid flows through them. They don’t have any moving parts that can break or get stuck. Use them only with liquids that are at least 95% water. They have one analog output for flow and another for temperature. The output for temperature can also be wired for IO Link.

    High-Pressure Flow Switches

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Contains Annotated. Flow Switches. High-Pressure Flow Switches.
    Rated for pressures up to 3,600 psi, these switches measure the flow rate of liquids to activate or deactivate equipment when your flow rate reaches a set point. Tighten or loosen the adjustment screw on these switches to choose your flow rate anywhere within set point the range. As flowing liquid pushes an internal piston, the switch reads the position of the piston to measure the flow. When the piston passes the set point, the switch actuates. These switches are single pole, double throw (SPDT) and can turn one device from off to on (normally open) or from on to off (normally closed). They must be mounted horizontally to function correctly. IP rated, they seal out dust and can be lightly rinsed.
    These switches are calibrated with and measure water accurately. They can also be used with other liquids by applying your liquid’s specific-gravity conversion factor to calculate the new set point.

    Sanitary Electronic Insertion-Mount Flow Switches

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Flow Switches. Sanitary Electronic Insertion-Mount Flow Switches.
    Easy to clean and install, these flow switches are 3-A certified to meet sanitary design standards and insert into your line with a quick-clamp mounting adapter (sold separately). They have a smooth probe, and unlike flow switches that measure with a paddle or turbine, these don’t have moving parts for contaminants to get stuck in. Rated IP67 and IP69K, they withstand temporary submersion and high-temperature, high-pressure washdowns. The mounting adapter attaches to a quick-clamp tube tee or outlet (often called tri-clamp fittings) in your large-diameter tubing system using a gasket and clamp (not included), so you don't need to disassemble your line for inline installation. This mounting adapter is also easy to remove and clean.
    They send digital signals to your programmable logic controller (PLC) to activate automated controls or alarms when they reach a set flow rate. To calculate the flow rate, they generate a small amount of heat, then measure the cooling effect your liquid or gas has on it. This makes them ideal in applications with fluctuating temperatures. Use the buttons on the display to adjust the set point and other settings. They’re accurate in any mounting position.

    Flow, Pressure, and Temperature Transmitters for Gases

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Flow Transmitters. Flow, Pressure, and Temperature Transmitters for Gases.
    Measure and transmit flow rate, pressure, and temperature of industrial gases, such as air, argon, CO2, and nitrogen, flowing through your system. These transmitters are ideal for applications where temperature and pressure can fluctuate. To calculate flow rate, they generate a small amount of heat, then measure the cooling effect your gas has on it. Also known as transducers, these transmitters convert measurements to an electrical signal that can be interpreted by receiving devices, such as remote displays and programmable logic controllers (PLCs). As flow, temperature, and pressure increases, the output signal increases. For your receiving device to interpret the signal, you will need to calibrate it for the measurement range and output signal of the transmitter. They only give accurate readings within the rated measurement range. Mount them directly inline with your system. They measure correctly no matter their mounting orientation.
    A digital display makes it easy to read measurements and adjust settings based on your gas. These transmitters have two configurable outputs, and each output can only be wired for one measurement (flow rate, pressure, or temperature). Outputs configured as digital pulse send flow data using spikes of voltage that match the input voltage of the transmitter. One of the outputs can be wired for IO-Link, so you can change settings and receive error messages remotely from your PLC or computer. You’ll need an IO Link controller (not included) to connect to your interface.
    These transmitters are calibrated with air but still measure accurately when used with other gases.

    High-Accuracy Flow and Temperature Transmitters

    Image of Product. Back orientation. Flow Transmitters. High-Accuracy Flow and Temperature Transmitters.
    Also known as magmeters, these transmitters use a magnetic field to measure flow rate and temperature with high accuracy. Because they use a magnetic field, they only work with conductive liquids, such as water. These transmitters, also known as transducers, convert measurements to an electrical signal that can be interpreted by receiving devices, such as remote displays and programmable logic controllers (PLCs) to monitor flow or control equipment. For your receiving device to interpret the signal, you will need to calibrate it for the measurement range and output signal of the transmitter. As flow or temperature increases, the output signal increases. These transmitters have one analog output for flow and another for temperature. They only give accurate readings within the rated measurement range. A digital display makes it easy to view readings and adjust settings at the source. Mount these transmitters inline with your pipe system. They measure flow correctly in any mounting orientation.
    These transmitters are calibrated with water. They can only be used with liquids with a conductivity of at least 20 µS/cm.

    Thread mounting hardware (sold separately) into your pipe connection and insert the probe of these transmitters to measure the flow and temperature of water, oil, or air. The probe is held in place with a compression fitting on the other end of the mounting hardware. They’re often used in large-diameter pipes where it would be difficult to install a transmitter inline. To calculate the flow rate, these transmitters generate a small amount of heat, then measure the cooling effect your liquid or air has on it. They measure and output both flow and temperature, making them ideal for applications where temperature fluctuates. Also known as transducers, they convert measurements to an electrical signal that can be interpreted by receiving devices, such as remote displays and programmable logic controllers (PLCs) to monitor flow or control equipment. As flow or temperature increases, the output signal increases. For your receiving device to interpret the signal, you will need to calibrate it for the measurement range and output signal of the transmitter. They only give accurate readings within the rated measurement range. They’ll measure flow correctly in any mounting orientation. These transmitters are calibrated with air, glycol solutions, oil, and water but can be recalibrated in the field for other liquids.
    Adjust settings at the source using the digital display. These transmitters have two configurable outputs. One can be wired for flow or temperature as an analog output or a digital switch. The other one can be wired for flow as a digital switch, digital pulse output, or IO Link. Pulse outputs send flow data using spikes of voltage that match the input voltage of the transmitter. The higher the flow, the more pulses they send. To change settings and receive error messages remotely from your PLC or computer, you can program one of the outputs to use IO Link. You’ll need an IO Link controller (not included) to connect to your interface.

    Flow Measurement

    Send flow rate measurements to monitor and control equipment. Also known as transducers, these transmitters convert flow rate measurements to an electrical signal that can be interpreted by receiving devices, such as remote displays and programmable logic controllers (PLCs). As flow increases, the output signal increases. For your receiving device to interpret the signal, you will need to calibrate it for the measurement range and output signal of the transmitter. They only give accurate readings within the rated measurement range. Mount them directly inline with your system. They measure flow correctly no matter their mounting orientation.
    These transmitters are calibrated with water. You can use them with other liquids, but they may not measure accurately if the liquid’s viscosity differs from water.
    Variable Area Flow Measurement—Variable-area transmitters determine flow rate by tracking where the liquid pushes an internal piston.
